Gray Area's Matter (Accounts of a life abroad) is a candid, compelling account of an initially young, raw recruit turned seasoned expat, whose observations of a work life and its culture far from the conservative confines of Kansas, humours yet informs the reader of the diverse, tangled and often perplexing aspects of enduring, as well as enjoying some of the world's most exotic locales. The oddities of what transpires in forging a life overseas can often blur the lines between memoir and fiction, offering a glimpse into worlds not normally shared. Anyone remotely curious about the cultural diversity, work politics and idiosyncrasies of existing and functioning in areas as far flung as a village of 400 (inclusive of the goats) in Niger, West Africa, the edge of the Aceh Rainforest in North Sumatra, the deserts of Saudi Arabia or the hustle and tranquility that can be Japan, will be drawn to the reality and intriguing stories the book portrays.
